Naomi
** 2021 Stock ** ‘Naomi’ - the debut album by Portuguese duo HRNS - flickers gently between vulnerability and security, between being here and being there. This is music for contemplative, tired moments, when the immensity of space seems most striking. And as planes continue to fly over our heads, we all slowly drift further and further apart. But not everything is lost; perhaps our paths will cross again one day.
"There’s an impressionistic worldview behind this music, as if the listener is dri…
Kannazuki
** 2021 Stock. Limited edition CD housed in a digipak and obi strip ** 'Kannazuki' - the traditional name for the tenth month of the year in the Japanese lunar calendar - is a truly unique moment, a glimpse into a one-off improvisation of a quartet of musicians (Haco, Takako Minekawa, Dustin Wong, Jára Tarnovski) which took place in Tokyo in 2017. Recorded by Hideaki Hayashidani at Nanahari, the moment is described by the musicians as a “musical adventure”, a “translucent entanglement”, and a mo…
Everyone is Here
** 2021 Stock ** At the core of 'Everyone is here' lies Kajsa Lindgren's usual process, defined by one simple question: “How can you make something of your own by manipulating time and space?” The Swedish composer joins Warm Winters Ltd. after recent releases with Hyperdelia (WOMB, 2018) and Longform Editions (Undercurrents, 2019). This album's 20 tracks are based around archival recordings that Kajsa stumbled upon in her parents' old basement and around memories of places or sounds from her chi…

Asemix
** Limited edition clear cassette housed in a transparent jewel case ** Asemix is the collaborative project of Mari Maurice (aka more eaze) and Nick Zanca (aka Mister Lies) exploring the blurry space between pop abstraction, electro-acoustic zones and sound collage. Their self-titled debut record is the culmination of a year of remote collaboration, stem-swapping, blind trust and an almost telepathic creative process. “I really had no idea what form it would take. It seemed equally likely to man…
Sånger Till En Människa

Mastered by Joakim Karlsson ** The fourth release from Discreet Music is another seemingly out-of-nowhere debut album from an Gothenburg artist.

Plux Quba
One of the greatest sonic masterpieces of the '80s - long championed by Jim O'Rourke and foreshadowing the work of an entire generation of experimental electronic music that emerged during the 1990s - Christian Fennesz, Oval, Mouse on Mars, Microstoria, C-Schulz, Mountains, and Oren Ambarchi - we're thrilled to offer an essential repress of Nuno Canavarro's visionary LP, Plux Quba, via the venerable Drag City. Originally appearing from the shadows of the mysterious vanguard of Portuguese music i…
Audioregistratore Due Cavalli
Angelo Bignamini and Cristiano Carosi met on the internet in 2017. They arrange a short tour together in the north of Italy at the end of the same year but play for the first time together in Piacenza some years later and "Audioregistratore" is the result of this live collaboration. In that occasion they improvise supported by magnetic tapes, sinthesizers and various objects. The result is a dynamic and well meshed divertissement, a multifaced recordings full of complicity and introspection, pla…
Misure
** Recycled Tape, Xeroxed Art, Limited Edition of 36 Numbered Copies ** In the last few years several italian artists started to go deeper in tape music exploration. That's the case of Rome-based Cristiano Carosi. Misure presents the introspective psychedelic side of it. A collage of different sources such as surreal words, altered voices coming from who knows where, and clumsy synthesis-produced sounds that melt down together in a juicy lo-fi sauce (remarked by the straight-on-cassette recordin…
Chlorophytum
** 2021 Stock ** Following on from the deranged machine mulch of the Cru Servers we proudly announce the second record on the label to emerge from our native south side of Glasgow. Lo Kindre is the solo project of Irish/Luxembourgish bedroom producer, amateur footballer and award-winning bartender Daniel Magee. Crawling out from the undergrowth at the speed of a snail with dreadlocks this six track EP builds upon his previous venture for Optimo Music and manages to enchant in many of the same wa…
Sylvie and Babs
* Super limited picture disc LP, with new Babs Santini artwork. Already sold-out at source * One pressing and that’s it, buy or die – you know the drill. Nurse With Wound at their peak. “Sylvie and Babs is one of the most memorable, playful, and fascinating albums in the NWW oeuvre (though a decidedly unrepresentative one)…few (if any) other artists could’ve woven capricious contrarianism, low humor, bad puns, endless non-sequiturs, and chaos into such a satisfying whole“ – Anthony D’Amico

Speech Poems / Fruity Music
Black Truffle is delighted to offer up a rare serving of unheard works by legendary Swiss artist Anton Bruhin. Active as a visual artist, poet, and musician since the 1960s, Bruhin has created important work in forms as varied as concrete poetry and landscape painting, imbuing everything he does with wit, humility, and absurdist humour. A recognised master of the jew’s harp (or Trümpi, as this ancient folk instrument is known in Swiss German), Bruhin’s sound work also encompasses tape collage, s…
Two Views of Amami Ōshima
**Edition of 300** In 1958 the painter Isson Tanaka (°22 July 1908 –*11 September 1977) moved to Amami Ōshima, an island in the Ryukyus. There, in self-chosen isolation, he committed himself exclusively to his art until his sudden passing in 1977. In 2018 Seiha Kurosawa, Kanako Azuma and Hideki Umezawa visited Amami Ōshima to create a video installation about Tanaka’s insular life. The work, entitled “Dokkyaku” (tr. The Lone Visitor), shifts between the texture and materiality of Tanaka’s painti…
Aatma
**150 copies** Aatma is the re-imagining of my recent journey into Mumbai through sound, place, and moment with a Nagra SD recorder. The work was composed immediately upon my return while these things were, in a very real sense, still resonating in my mind. Part 1 is the arrival. Echoes of the shanka can be heard from a distant past across the Arabian Sea, as waves wash debris ashore and push you deep into the tumult of the city. Here you may experience the current of life and ride old trains in…
The Habu
**Edition of 300 copies** Poole Music is thrilled to announce its inaugural commission, the Habu, the latest full-length from Belgium’s Lieven Martens. For the better part of two decades, Martens has been expanding his Aloha-bedecked musical vision, transitioning from the basement tape environments of his Dolphins into the Future project to the rich compositional tapestries of more recent post-exotica modernist works.
The Habu represents a true culmination of these identities in one of his most…
